David Gurteen's Consulting Services

I work directly with people in organizations who wish to better meet their objectives through knowledge oriented approaches. My role as a consultant can range from giving advice and coaching to participation in a project team. I work with organizations at two levels.

At the strategic level, I work with executives and knowledge leaders to develop their knowledge strategy and knowledge capabilities. This includes:

• design an overall knowledge strategy
• work with managers to identify how a knowledge strategy would support their organizational objectives
• work with managers to develop a business case for their knowledge strategy
• educate managers on their role in creating a knowledge oriented environment
• work with managers to help establish organizational structures that support and promote a knowledge creating and sharing culture

At the operational level, I work with individual leaders and teams to implement specific knowledge initiatives. This includes:

• help design an overall operational approach to knowledge sharing
• help get buy-in for a specific knowledge initiative
• help managers to identify and implement knowledge initiatives that help meet their objectives
• coach knowledge leaders
• run knowledge and innovation cafes

I am an avid networker. I naturally love to help people to 'make their knowledge productive'. If you think I could help, I am more then happy to take the occasional phone call or e-mail or meet for lunch though clearly I charge for more substantial consulting, coaching or other support. If you would like to talk or learn more about any of my services then please contact me.
